This is really three books - one about his own youth and upbringing. This is energetic, eloquent and insightful into the writer that we all know and love. Second comes his viewpoints on writing. They are pretty helpful and also quite concise, and should help anyone serious about the craft. However, I found the third part about his accident uninteresting. I know that it is a fact it happened, but many of us have been through similar experiences. I don't really empathise with the author through this part.

However, it is on the whole a candid look at an amazing man, and will make people think twice about the great dividing line between popular fiction and literature.

Books : The Witching Way of the Hollow Hill
The Witching Way of the Hollow Hill.
By Robin Artisson.
Published by Owlblink Bookcrafting Company (USA).
ISBN 978-1-4116-8193-4
Review by the Chattering Magpie.

Subtitled "the gramaryre of the folk who dwell below the mound and a sourcebook of hidden wisdom, folklore, Traditional Paganism and Witchcraft" this work makes some quite ambitious claims that are I think, generally fulfilled.

This book is a personal examination of the theory and practice of the British Traditional (non-Gardnerian) Craft. As such it combines elements of a book of shadows or grimoire, with explorations of the underling spirituality and magickal practice. This puts the work on a par with "Witchcraft a tradition renewed" by the late great ... Read More:

117.Mondo Macabro: Weird & Wonderful Cinema Around the World by: Pete Tombs
1998-05
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Books : Mondo Macabro: Weird & Wonderful Cinema Around the World
Tombs' book promises us the weird, wonderful, and obscure, and delivers in frustrating quantity (frustrating because, if you are like me, each page turns you on to a difficult-to-find treasure that will obsess you for months). Some books on cult films promise you the zany stuff and then deliver yet another chapter on The Rocky Horror Picture Show or Friday the 13th. Tombs thumbs his nose at run-of-the-mill nonsense and goes for the real mind-blowing stuff.

Crazy films from Hong Kong, Japan, Indonesia, The Philippines, Bali, India, Mexico, and Turkey (among others) are covered, and Tombs turns up some of the most priceless gems I've ever seen. Bruce Lee Versus Gay Power?!?! From Brazil? Do you know how obsessed I am with finding this film now? A Turkish ... Read More:

'You are no longer a victim, you are a victor!' 'The techniques herein, however, should not preclude obtaining professional assistance, whether we are talking about the need to notify the police, a counselor, or medical professionals.' 'Throwing magick at a problem or goal isn't the ultimate solution to all of our difficulties.' 'Like the famous guy says, "Don't sweat the small stuff".'

While I find this refreshing coming from Silver Ravenwolf, and commend her on placing this most valuable common sense in the front of her book, I wish she would have focused more on this kind of wisdom throughout her book rather than offering the 'book designed to teach you how to prevent bad things from occurring and how to protect yourself should you walk into something ...
